A stunning view of the Moon’s Shackleton Crater
In September, NASA unveiled a composite image of an impact crater that’s perpetually shrouded in the darkness at our Moon’s south pole. This image was created by merging the high light-sensitivity capabilities of NASA’s ShadowCam with the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter’s capacity to observe areas engulfed in shadows. This collaboration allowed scientists to produce a unique and highly detailed view of the Shackleton Crater, revealing features never seen before.
